Husqvarna Automower® robotic mowers are the smarter way to mow.
-
Verduous Gardens launched in the year 2000 and today is a thriving business servicing properties in Sydney, the Central Coast and the Hunter Valley, ranging from courtyards to large rural properties, and specialising in prestige residential property maintenance, plant sculpting, hedging and pruning. The company is also a dealer for Husqvarna's Automower® robotic mower, and it's made this customer very happy.
Successful trial
Dave and Justine Mikkelsen run Fluid Plumbing, and while the business may be both time-consuming and successful, it hasn't kept the couple and their children from establishing a truly beautiful home on four-and-half acres on the NSW central coast. The gardens are spectacular, as are the vast, manicured stretches of lawn.
Keeping the property in such fabulous condition took some commitment, so Dave was very interested when Verduous Gardens suggested he consider a Husqvarna Automower® robotic mower to take care of the mowing, freeing up some time for the business owner.
Having adopted the idea, it was only a month or so before Dave noticed the lawn in the 'back paddock' - the operating arena for the Automower® robotic mower - looked to be in exceptionally good condition. In a short time the first Automower® had been joined by a second, and then a third.
